Shoes From Facebook

[ Edited ]

Saw these shoes on some Facebook ad & they do NOT look comfortable to me!

I think I'd have trouble classifying those as shoes

Yeah, that's true!  I'm not even sure I'd call them sandals, though that's probably what they are.  For those folks that have trouble with just regular thong type sandals with a single post/strap between the big toe & the next one, I think having stuff between all of your toes like that would drive your crazy!  I think it would me anyway!

I kind of like them.  Having the toes controlled would keep your feet from flopping off the sole like most thongs do unless there is a lip to keep your feet from sliding off.  At least that is what happens to me.

I have a pair of pedicure sandals with toe separators that sort of are based on the same concept of these sandals. Those pedicure sandals are so comfortable that I could easily wear them all day. Depending on what these sandals are made from they might be comfortable, too.

Yeah, these sandals are from Facebook- and there they shall remain. 

They may look unique, but epic fail if you try to walk in them following the photo share.

I'd have to see these in action but it looks like there's nothing anchoring the big toe or most of the inside part of the foot. I would think these would be difficult to walk in, keeping your whole foot in the sandal.

Not for me. I don't like anything between any of my toes.
I think these are a little creepy - looks like a monster's claw is crawling or spreading across your foot. 😳

I'd probably be flat on my tail!

I don't mind the separation between the toes, I have been working  on separating my toes, so that would actually be a plus.

 

But I don't think these "sandals" would keep the foot in.  With those thin strips of material, the foot would have to work extra hard to keep the shoes on.  Look how hard that little and second toes in the front are working to keep the "sandal" on.  (For anyone asking why I want shoe models back, this is one explanation, we can see how the foot behaves.)  

 

I think these would ruin the feet and be uncomfortable, assuming you can keep them on.
